I have been using Apache on windows XP succesfully for several years, I hve
recently setup a Suse linux server and installed Apache 2 on it. All works
fine, PHP, MYSQL, Perl etc. except that pages on the server will not display
images, background or otherwise. The same pages work fine on Apache running
under windows!

Any error in the error_log? Do you get a 'broken image' picture in the
web page or just nothing?

Case-sensitiveness, maybe?

Are those failing images generated by scripts still attempting to find a

do you have other network problems, sometimes these and other weird
symptoms can be due to MTU settings, on my home net, all Linux and
unix varieties that I install have to have their default MTU set down
to 1490.
Use wireshark to debug network issues by looking at the error
packets, if you see fragmentation and retransmission its MTU (probably)

What happens if you call directly an image?
Try to right click on a broken image and choose "show image".

Ther is no broken image to click on!

So try to type directly the name of an image file.

BTW, usually Apache has its own /icons/ folder.
What happens calling http://yoursite/icons/icon.sheet.gif ?

If the server you're testing is the same of your NNTP-Posting-Host, I
can see a huge (>200kb) train numbered 7822 as background.

And please, don't place your replies at the top of the message: there is

try to give more info, David asked for the error log info. Is the
error code a 404 or what?
What was the result of using wireshark?
Have you used the same httpd.conf file for XP as SUSE, perhaps in SUSE
you have misconfigured something for the directory in which you have
placed the images.
Perhaps an "Alias" conflict - you might not be requesting files from a
location where the resource lies if that is the case.
What permissions have you set for the images?
do you have the images under a different sub domain to the html
there are so many alternatives, we just need a bit more than "no
images or part of"

No error codes, the rest of the page displays correctly
apache was installed at the same time as installing Linux and am using the
conf file created at that time. the error log occasionally reports file not
found but not every time the folder that the file is in is the same as that
listed in the error log.
The images are in the same folder as th html files.
I can open the images in Gimp with no errors.
No network problems.

If you feel like posting more info then rest assured we will take a
look.
Get Wireshark, Fiddlertool debugging proxy, post the error log - and
the access log for a single page request and then a single image
request..
Im still not sure whether there are or are not error codes, its all
just a bit too vague for me at the mo, and I feel our questions aren't
really being answered.

I mean do you have images turned off in your browser!!? This is going
to turn out to be a bit of a let down I think.

At the moment, it could be a html markup error, a css error, a rewrite
error, a javascript error, a permissions error, and yes still a
network error - I know you say it's fine, but I tend to doubt it as
you havent shown you have actually checked it.

Wireshark is easy to use and will tell you absolutely what is and what
is not travelling across your network, and how it is doing so.
Fiddlertool will show all the headers, bytes, load times, everything
you need to debug the markup.
The error and access will show details of how Apache is receiving and
processing the request. To say there arent any errors is to suggest
Apache is getting the requests and serving the files which are then
not making it across the network, or into the viewport of your
browser.

Debugging errors is an easy process of rigorous elimination, but I
can't force you to go through the steps or post the results back!

I have done a coplete reinstall of linux and apache etc. but changed
nothing, and it is now working! Same html same images same folders.
Thanks for all the suggestions but I still don't know why it wouldn't
work.all I have to do now is get the wlan card working!
